I have several project drawings that are in '.dwg' format which is
the Autocad file type.

I can view these by importing into Photoshop or VISIO, but I can't
edit them, they appear as a single item ... rather than the
individual elements of the drawings.

AutoCAD is not a cheap product and has a reputation for being a steep
learning curve .... anybody know of any other suitable drawing
package, presumably with fewer 'bells & whistles' which will allow me
to edit these files?

There are hacked versions of ACAD around which cannot possibly be
recommended.

One drifted my way. Copies anyone?

It would be a bit difficult for anyone to reply to that offer, since it
would by necessity have to be offlist
